Old Biddy's children have each been fed, Aa<i *11 but one have gone to tied, So Biddy will cluck and sing and sing Until he is hovered beneath her wing. The frisky chipmunks are slumbering now. And the wobbly calf, and the muley cow, The ladybugs now in the wav- ing grass. And the minnows sleep by the speckled bass. The bumblebee workers no longer come Aicmg the pathway to sip and hum, So Jack-in-the-Pulpit has clos- ed his door, For no customer buys his honey store.
